I just get frustrated when I read his dumbed-down articles in America's
official commercial trance sponsor, Mixer. I think he has so much more
potential to communicate deeper ideas with more poetic craft than Mixer
allows.
Why can't there be more high-brow magazines out there that don't focus on 17
year old ravers with E-fried brains as their primary demographic? These
mailing lists are cool and all, but I still enjoy the feel of a magazine and
all it's glossy pictures. Unfortunately, I still haven't found anything
worthwhile. I want a Red Herring for electronic music, not a Maxim.
